Zara Is Always One Step Ahead of the High Street—7 Major Spring/Summer Trends It Has Already Perfected
Zara really knows how to tease us. They’ve got their finger on the pulse of the biggest trends , and at the first sight of the changing of the season, they drip-feed us the goods. It’s no wonder we lean on them time and time again for the latest in classic, timeless and elegant pieces at purse-friendly prices to update our capsule wardrobes year-round.
I, for one, am ready for some wardrobe switch-ups— the daffodils are out, the sunnies are on and the days are getting longer (thank you, sunshine). There’s that heart-warming feeling in the air that compels me to make some intentional changes in my day-to-day attire. Don’t get me wrong, I still want to remain chic and put-together, but with the ever-so-slight increase in temperature, I want to lighten the layers, brighten the tones and spark a little bit of joy in my looks.
If you’re feeling this way inclined too, you may consider adopting some of the colours du jour such as butter yellow and powder pink. Investing in some lighter weight accessories such as woven bags and suede shoes , and if you’re feeling extra brave, perhaps beating the fash-pack to the high summer vibes of boho-chic (yes, it’s back!). If all else fails and the weather dictates the total opposite, the rising trend of the cropped trench will no-doubt have your back covered.
So without further ado, let me show you my pick of Zara’s latest edit, a selection which is not only spot on for now, but will make for great additions to your wardrobe for years to come.
BUTTERY GOODNESS
JET-SET DREAMING
I love the rich burgundy tones to this blouse, and of course the matching skirt.
SPRING KNITS
Pair with the matching tank for intentional ease. Super chic!
POWDER PINK
Sugary sweet but timelessly chic. Partner with the corresponding jeans and burgundy shoes for the ultimate vibe.
CROPPED TRENCHES
The navy version gives me Kendall Jenner energy.
BRAIDED BAGS
XXL bags are so it right now. This woven tote comes in choccy-brown and beige.
TOFFEE SUEDE
